Research by the Norman Lear Center's Media Impact Project shows that only 2.8% of scripted TV shows between 2016-2020 included any climate-related language, even fewer included the term “climate change,” despite a majority of Americans having experienced a climate-related disaster or extreme weather by 2021.Why is the topic of climate change nearly non-existent within TV and pop culture – and how can audiences and creatives change that? Sit down with the writers, producers, and researchers who use entertainment to reflect the reality of climate change (sometimes within surreal circumstances), increase awareness and understanding about the climate emergency, and incorporate actionable solutions.This conversation is presented by Hollywood, Health & Society, and was recorded at ATX TV Festival Season 12 (June 1-4, 2023) in Austin, TX.Hollywood, Health & Society (HH&S) is a program of the USC Annenberg Norman Lear Center that provides the entertainment industry with accurate and up-to-date information for storylines on health, safety and security.

Daily News Brief by TRT World

*) Russia says Ukraine's attack on Belgorod region ‘repelled' Several drones struck Russia's border region of Belgorod overnight, a day after an armed group infiltrated the area from Ukraine, the local governor said. Belgorod's governor wrote on Telegram that the drones struck houses and a government building, leaving one woman dead and injuring eight others. Meanwhile, calling it a “terrorist” attack, the Russian Defence Ministry claimed that Ukraine's attack on the Belgorod region was repelled. *) Thousands rally in Israel against budget 'looting' for ultra-Orthodox Jews Thousands of Israelis have protested the allocation of funds to ultra-Orthodox Jews in the far-right government's proposed state budget. Ahead of the budget votes beginning late Tuesday and continuing on Wednesday, the drum-beating protesters, bearing Israeli flags, marched to parliament. They accused the ruling coalition of "looting" the state's money. *) Over 450 Catholic clergy sexually abused nearly 2,000 children in Illinois More than 450 Catholic clergy in Illinois have sexually abused nearly 2,000 children since 1950, the state's attorney general has found in an investigation. The investigation revealed that the problem was far worse than the church had let on. But the Illinois State Attorney General Kwame Raoul said at a news conference on Tuesday that the statute of limitations has expired in many cases and that those abusers "will never see justice in a legal sense." *) 'Stolen': UK royals refuse to return remains of teenage Ethiopian prince Buckingham Palace has refused to return the body of a teenage Ethiopian prince who was buried at Windsor Castle 144 years ago. A descendant of Prince Alemayehu – an orphan who was adored and supported financially by Queen Victoria and died at the age of 18 – has demanded that his remains be returned to Ethiopia. However, Buckingham Palace has rejected the call once again, saying that removing the body would affect others buried in the catacombs of St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle. *) Hollywood urged to depict safer gun use as US mass killings rise A report by USC Annenberg's Norman Lear Center for Hollywood, Health and Society said Hollywood should portray safer use of guns in TV and film at a time of rampant gun violence in the US. Norman Lear Center's programme director Kate Folb said if television can embrace depicting gun safety, we will see people in America become more comfortable with securing their guns safely at home. Folb, who has spent years studying the correlation between entertainment and society, is of the view that simply showing safe gun storage onscreen can have a lasting impact.

Aired 03/17/09 "A world organized around centralized control, strict intellectual property rights, and hierarchies of credentialed experts is under siege. A radically different order of society based on open access, decentralized creativity, collaborative intelligence, and cheap and easy sharing is ascendant." - from VIRAL SPIRAL A global brigade of techies, lawyers, artists, musicians, scientists. businesspeople, innovators, and geeks of all stripes are dedicated to creating a digital republic committed to freedom and innovation. From free and open-source software, Creative Commons licenses, Wikipedia, remix music and video mashups, peer production, open science, open education, and open business, the world of digital media has spawned a new "sharing economy" that increasingly competes with entrenched media giants. I will also ask David to comment on the recent - and upcoming - bailouts, from the perspective of citizens and the commons. In other words, rather than fearing socialism, what are we getting for our "common" contributions to giant corporations -- and what should we be demanding? DAVID BOLLIER is Senior Fellow at the Norman Lear Center at the USC Annenberg Center for Communication and co-founder of Public Knowledge, a Washington policy advocacy organization dedicated to protecting the information commons. His latest book is VIRAL SPIRAL: How the Commoners Built a Digital Republic of Their Own. www.viralspiral.cc www.bollier.org www.onthecommons.org

Robert Putnam has suggested that the political consciousness and civic engagement of the post-World War II generation may have taken shape in bowling alleys and other spaces where community members gathered. Might the political consciousness of the new generation be taking shape in and around popular culture? Are we seeing a blurring of the roles of citizen and consumer? Is this fusion between entertainment and news a good or a bad thing? What links exist between our cultural and our political preferences? How are activists and political leaders utilizing metaphors from popular culture as resources to mobilize their supporters? Is it possible that aspects of our popular culturemay generate utopian visions that fuel political change? These and other questions were explored by panelists Johanna Blakley, deputy director of the Norman Lear Center at USC; David Carr, media and culture writer for the New York Times; and Stephen Duncombe, associate professor at NYU and author of Dream: Re-Imagining Progressive Politics in an Age of Fantasy. Henry Jenkins moderated.
